This article highlights the transformative qualities and potential of cinematherapy, which make it an appropriate and innovative pedagogical tool. The relevant literature review shows that with regard to cinematherapy in education ¾both adult and minor¾ international research is limited. Relative research in Greece is non-existent. The aim of the paper is to present the method developed in the framework of an original experiential training programme for educators for the development of intercultural competence through films and cinematherapy, entitled "CINEducation". The programme is theoretically framed by critical pedagogy, the principles of intercultural and inclusive education, as well as adult education, in particular transformative learning and person-centred education. The programme is also linked to the principles of experiential learning, education through art and action research, placing the focus on individual and subjective experience, otherness and the transformative potential of education and cinematherapy. It aims to contribute to the fields of intercultural and film education, responding to the growing demand for training educators with new tools and in new tools. Film and cinematherapy are used as a means of personal and professional development through the gradual, intervening, non-directive discovery of knowledge and development of skills and attitudes that promote the principles of intercultural education.
